How old is "Nockerl", my German dictionary issued in 1905
doesn't mention it.

Mediaeval times.
The dictionary also won't mention Schöberl or Fleckerl.

My old Cassell's does have <Nockerl>, though not the other
two. My much newer Harper-Collins has none of them, though
for some reason it does have <Fleckerlteppich> 'rag rug'.
